Wanted to show some snapshots taken in my kitchen - I was lucky to find this vintage Marimekko formica table looking in a closed shop window one Sunday in Brighton - I phoned them immediately and they agreed to open up the shop that same day and let me buy it. The rest of the shop was dark brown antique furniture!

About Me

I'm Jane Foster and I run a small business in Totnes, Devon called Jane Foster Designs selling Scandinavian inspired quirky toys, screen prints, cushions and bags. I design everything from my studio and screen print almost everything myself. All the toys and cushions are made here in Devon by myself (and sometimes a few other local women) thus keeping the carbon footprint down. My partner Jim also helps with the business and is incredibly supportive. We have a six year old daughter who also loves being creative in our studio and playing with the toys!

I've had the first of my three books published by Collins and Brown and have had several of my screen prints and designs published as posters and cards, including a print in Ikea. I also design prints for The Art Group who have around 20 of my prints in their catalogue.
